Eyewear with proximity sensors
An eyewear device that includes a frame and two arms extending distally from the frame with at least one processor included on the frame or the arms and at least two proximity sensors disposed within the frame or arms in a directional manner. The proximity sensors include an infrared signal receiver to receive an infrared emission. The processors execute an operation to warn a person wearing the eyeglasses by emitting a signal selected from a sound, light or vibration when the proximity sensor detects an infrared emission.
1. An eyewear device, comprising:
a frame;
two arms extending along a temple region of a person's head when worn by a person;
at least two spaced apart movement sensors;
an IRED/infrared emitting device adapted to emit a signal, said IRED/infrared emitting device being operatively associated with said at least two spaced apart movement sensors;
a controller having a microprocessor, said controller adapted to detect outputs of said at least two spaced apart movement sensors, said outputs triggered when said at least two spaced apart movement sensors detect a movement of an individual's hands wherein the person is warned when said IRED/infrared emitting device emits said signal; and
a recording transmitter for communicating from said at least two spaced apart movement sensors to a recording device that records the occurrence of said signal.
2. The device as set forth in claim 1 , wherein said IRED/infrared emitting device is adjustable with respect to an intensity of said signal.
3. The device as set forth in claim 1 , wherein said emitted signal produces a sensory signal consisting of an electric shock.
4. The device as set forth in claim 1 , wherein said emitted signal produces a sensory signal comprising a sound.
5. The device as set forth in claim 1 , said two spaced apart movement sensors are not in contact with the person's skin.
6. The device as set forth in claim 1 , wherein said eyewear comprises eye glasses.
7. The device as set forth in claim 1 , wherein said emitted signal produces a sensory signal selected from the group consisting of a sound and light.
8. The device as set forth in claim 1 , wherein said emitted signal produces a sensory signal consisting of a vibration.
9. An eyewear device, comprising:
at least two spaced apart movement sensors;
an IRED/infrared emitting device adapted to emit a signal, said IRED/infrared emitting device being operatively associated with said at least two spaced apart movement sensors; wherein said two spaced apart movement sensors are not in contact with a person's skin;
a controller having a microprocessor, said controller adapted to detect outputs of said at least two spaced apart movement sensors, said outputs triggered when said at least two spaced apart movement sensors detect a movement of an individual's hands, said IRED/infrared emitting device emits said signal; and
a recording transmitter for communicating from said at least two spaced apart movement sensors to a recording device that records the occurrence of said signal.
10. The device as set forth in claim 9 , wherein said IRED/infrared emitting device is adjustable with respect to an intensity of said signal.
11. The device as set forth in claim 9 , wherein said emitted signal produces a sensory signal consisting of a vibration.
12. The device as set forth in claim 9 , wherein said emitted signal produces a sensory signal comprising a sound.
13. The device as set forth in claim 9 , said two spaced apart movement sensors are not in contact with the person's skin.
14. The device as set forth in claim 9 , wherein said at least two spaced apart movement sensors are incorporated into a pair of eye glasses.
15. An eyewear device, comprising:
at least two spaced apart movement sensors;
an IRED/infrared emitting device adapted to emit a vibration signal, said IRED/infrared emitting device being operatively associated with said at least two spaced apart movement sensors;
a controller having a microprocessor, said controller adapted to detect outputs of said at least two spaced apart movement sensors, said outputs triggered when said at least two spaced apart movement sensors detect a movement of an individual's hands,
and
a recording transmitter for communicating from said at least two spaced apart movement sensors to a recording device that records the occurrence of said signal.
16. The device as set forth in claim 15 , wherein the eyewear comprises sunglasses and wherein the device comprises cavities to accommodate one or several batteries.
17. The device as set forth in claim 15 , wherein the at least two spaced apart movement sensors are focused to achieve directional sensing and wherein one of the at least two spaced apart movement sensors is positioned on a nose region of the eyewear device.
18. The device as set forth in claim 15 , wherein said IRED/infrared emitting device is wireless.
19. The device as set forth in claim 15 , further comprising a lens assembly to focus and/or guide the direction of the movement sensors to detect movement within one or more specific positions.
